Brian Wilson and offer to shave beard

I'm sure this may have been brought up already but I have to throw my 2 cents in. He should shave that beard and with a 1 million dollar offer, (http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/eye-on-baseball/23266680/razor-company-offers-brian-wilson-1-million-to-shave-beard) he should have done it yesterday. That beard is a reminder of his days in SF and honestly, it bugs the hell out of me. If he continues to do what he did in finishing up the 9th yesterday in Marlins game, great, could be a plus in postseason with his experience. But until that beard is gone, he will always be the SF pitcher who pitches for the Dodgers. Donate the money to local charity, save it for vacation, whatever, but the beard has to go. Keep a dodger blue goatee or something...

He just said on KCAL in an interview that this was a big publicity stunt by the razor company. He said he was never offered 1million dollars to shave his beard, and called it a 2-bit company that put out that rumor for publicity, and that no one would remember who they are in another week.
